In-Home Care Services for Senior Veterans in Palm Beach Gardens, FL
Many specific program requirements vary by state, but the general process is straightforward. The VA provides much-needed financial assistance to qualifying families.
And it's not just for veterans, as the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs will provide funding to a spouse, dependent children, and even other family members who are disabled or over 65 years old.
Bear in mind that these benefits are an addition to a monthly pension to help offset the costs of in-home senior care and cannot be granted without eligibility for one's assistance. Furthermore, a veteran or their surviving spouse may not receive Aid Attendance and Housebound benefits simultaneously.
If your senior loved one is an eligible veteran, Visiting Angels Palm Beach Gardens could help. Besides providing personalized, one-on-one in-home care services, Visiting Angels Palm Beach Gardens helps aging adults throughout Palm Beach County and Martin County, FL, navigate filing paperwork for VA benefits.
Is My Senior Loved One Eligible for Aid & Attendance (A&A)?
Your senior loved one may be eligible to receive Aid & Attendance (A&A) benefits if they meet the following conditions:
- If they require in-home care services such as assistance with bathing, feeding, dressing, toileting, mobility, and other activities of daily living (ADL)
- If they are bedridden or disabled
- If they are a senior patient in a nursing home due to mental or physical incapacity
- If they have reasonably limited vision (5/200 visual acuity or less in both eyes)
To help offset some portion of care costs, permanently disabled senior veterans may receive an increased monthly pension when they are homebound.
